A few years ago, I bought a PRS SE Custom 22, and although it plays great and feels great and sounds great acoustically, I've never found a set of humbuckers that were able to tame the overwhelming mids to bring clarity and spark and anything that doesn't sound completely congested and fairly lifeless. I've tried a set of 59s, a Screamin' Demon, a Custom, a Distortion Set, a set of Bill and Becky blade humbuckers, and I just replaced a set of Blackouts with a set of Phat Cats.
I've never owned a guitar with P90s before, so based on the first hour's playthrough, I'm really loving how they have plenty of muscle but always retain the single-coil clarity and cleanness even under relatively heavy gain. I really liked this guitar--it will never overtake my Les Paul as my number one--but I had never made it sound good. Until now.
